A 51-year-old Los Angeles man who was wounded in a shooting on Saturday in the Wrigley area has died from his injuries, police said Wednesday.

Police responded to the 2300 block of Eucalyptus Avenue about 9:05 p.m. and found two men suffering from gunshot wounds to their lower bodies, according to a statement from the Long Beach Police Department.

Herbert Shephard was taken to a hospital in critical condition and died from his injures Tuesday, police said. The other victim, whose identity was not released, was in stable condition and is expected to survive.

No suspect information was available, and a motive for the shooting is not known, police said.
